LOL! Yes, I knew it was definitely Pathé as it is identical to the elbow on my Pathé 'E'. I have seen Pathé back-brackets and elbows / tone-arms on odd looking continental machines before so whether they were genuinely assembled by off-branders who bought the parts in, I can't say. Pathé DID sell parts as well as complete machines so it is feasible.

Having said that the machine in the OP is definitely NOT such a machine with any pedigree, sadly.

So, if you want to sell me that elbow, feel free to PM me anytime!
